| Jesus takes His cross
We adore You, O Christ, and we bless You.
Because by Your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
Large and heavy, edges rough,
weight unbearable, that cross has stood,
waiting the unfortunate, the criminal,
the victim of the court.
Firmly, silently, Jesus shouldered it.
The march began,
to Golgotha,
to Golgotha.
He struggled on, painfully, quietly,
alone.
Now the Cross as Jesus bore it,
Has become for us who share it,
The jeweled Cross of Victory.
